Chapter 852: Chapter 849: The Money is Gone and So is the Person

For him, Guibao was a treasure bestowed by heaven itself!

His words made the female companions of those wealthy young heirs even more envious of Helian Qiao!

After all, Gu Tingyun had publicly acknowledged her status!

She was not just any lover, but a rightfully claimed girlfriend!

Green with jealousy!

Such a handsome and wealthy man who was also devoted was truly rare!

They certainly didn’t want to cling to one man only. Knowing they were going to attend the horse races and the auction, they all dressed up with great effort, trying to outshine the others.

Yet, even though Gu Tingyun was close at hand, he did not even glance at them.

To them, a man who would not flirt around was incredibly hard to find!

Unfortunately, the very Gu Tingyun before them was just that type, but sadly, he was already taken!

While they were chatting idly, Helian Qiao and Bai Weiyin had come out of the restroom and stood beside Gu Tingyun.

Upon seeing Helian Qiao’s exquisitely beautiful appearance, the women who had initially felt jealous and adoring felt somewhat ashamed.

In terms of looks, they indeed felt inferior.

Being so attractive, it was no wonder Gu Tingyun was willing to remain chaste for her!

It wasn’t just him, seeing such a celestial beauty, they couldn’t help but feel their hearts stir as well.

"Gu Tingyun, let’s go!" Helian Qiao mischievously leaped onto him, rubbing her still moist hands on the hem of his clothes, all while giving him a beaming smile with sparkling eyes.

Immediately drawing the attention of many people present.

Holding her hand, Gu Tingyun declared as if staking his claim, "Alright!"

"Qiaoqiao, shall I give you a ride back to the hotel?" Bai Weiyin offered spontaneously.

The two had indeed made a name for themselves at the auction.

She worried about them being unfamiliar with the place and getting into trouble.

Since her family had hired bodyguards for her, having her accompany them would likely deter any mal-intentioned individuals.

After all, kidnapping and extortion cases were not rare in Harbor City.

For safety, He Junlin also added, "I’ll go with you too, just to ensure no one with bad intentions targets you."

Not long ago, the only son of a former beer industry tycoon in Harbor City was kidnapped right from the school gates after middle school. The abductors demanded a ransom of five million, which he paid obediently, but shockingly, the kidnappers still killed the boy.

The boy was cut into pieces; the money was gone, and so was the person!

The beer tycoon was devastated, leading his company to bankruptcy and his family to ruin!

Having bid on many items today, Gu Tingyun and others might attract the wrong kind of attention.

The auction staff standing nearby followed up, "Esteemed guests, we’ve arranged a special car with personnel to escort you back to the hotel for your protection."

Considering safety, they had prepared this thoughtful service.

Gu Tingyun, who disliked troubling others, chose to take the auction car, "Thank you both, but Guibao and I will just take the auction car back."

Although they didn’t really need the protection.

Helian Qiao swung her little fists fiercely and said, "I am very strong!"

If there were any bad guys, she would knock them out one by one!

Seeing her spirited and lively demeanor, Bai Weiyin couldn’t help but smile.

Such a spirited little bunny!

To ensure the authenticity of the items, the auction staff carefully secured the objects they had bid on into a safety deposit box in their presence. Then, the keys and the combination to the box were known only to the bidders.

All other items were sequentially placed inside, and the last one to go in was the Star of Hope.
